Note 31 — Chapter II · ToC (continued 2)

The Café Greco still exists, unaltered since the days when Leighton and Gamba lunched there every day on macaroni al burro. I visited it last May (1906), and heard from the present proprietor that it continues to be frequented by artists of all countries. He had heard of the book of sketches, and also that Rafaello had sold it before his death, but to whom the Padrone could not say.
